Hi,
hope that's the right way?

OS​: all Win32
Perl Version​: no matter, latest too
Fact​:
  my $SOCKET = IO​::Socket​::INET->new(
  Proto => "tcp",
  PeerPort => 8000,
  PeerAddr => "10.0.0.155",
  Timeout => 1
  ) or do {
  #
  };

If there is the PeerAddr not present in the net, I have a over 20 second timeout on W2K. The parameter "Timeout" does absolute not work!
BUT SEE​:
Now I tried cygwin perl 5.6.1 and it worked fine on W2K. How could it be?

Regards,
Peter
